q week past Mr.. Campbell steadily grew
weaker, and his family and friends realized
several days ago that the end was not FAR

anceship or were held in higher esteem,
and the announcement of his death, last

his connection with the Board and his sub

and great public spirit. His assiduons
labors on behalf of the State Fair Associa-
ton amply illustrated these traits OF char

and did not heed his request to put the
